I just feel like I'm never gonna get to meet my baby I know its stupid and I will cos I'll get induced on the 16th at the latest but I just cant imagine having him and holding him. Last night I burst into tears because I just want to have him now and again this morning. It's getting far too much for me now I really hope When I phone up for my sweep today they tell me it looks like things are moving cos I hate feeling this down all the time :(
My mum keeps trying to take my mind off it but I cant think of anything but going into labour :( I'm 9 days over now, I never realised just how bad it would make me feel :(

Poor you, I know exactly how you feel, I was induced when I was 12 days over. I kept wanting the MW to tell me something positive just so I could have a little hope but his head wasn't engaged at all!!

It really isn't very long before you meet your baby, but I know time just goes so slowly when you're overdue!

I hope he comes soon, and that you get some positive news from the MW when you have your sweep - or even better, that you go into labour before the sweep!!

Just try and do anything that will distract you! My sisters took me shopping to try and distract me, but it actually made it worse cos I saw 2 girls from my antenatal group that were due AFTER me pushing their newborn babies around!!! gRrrrrr

Aw hun, no wonder you feel fed up and keep crying. It's a long time to be waiting, you must be exhausted of it all now Don't worry, when baba arrives, you will forget what a torment this last bit has been

Fingers crossed that baby gets a move on for you

((((the strongest labour vibes ever))))

morning chick

it sucks dont it..
i am two days overdue now and its pants but i also went 13 days overdue with bobbi so sort of expected it..
i am having pants days and good days where i am not too bad but it does get you down, i know itsdifficult but try and think of positive things before your labour what you wont get once lil one is ere like walking to shop without having to take a push chair supply of milk nappies etc etc just having some you time cos that doesnt happen when there ere they need you 24/7 little things like that i know it doesnt sound much but once you start your brain working in that direction you sort of forget the fact that your overdue...
works for me... otherwise you really need to discus with your MW how your feeling as you dont need to be feeling so down before birth its hard once the sleep deprevation sets in xxx

I'd get your mum to take to shopping at ASDA and Mothercare If your waters break there then you'll get free stuff. That was my plan if I went overdue because our ASDA Living store and Mothercare are nextdoor to each other Just go in and out of both shops and hope for the best!

Sounds like a plan, ours are right next to each other as well...What a wierd coincidence. But they are about 45 min drive away...I want a mothercare closer.

I got my sweep at 2 today so Im really really hoping that brings me some good news x
